1) If you don't validate, nothing needs to be done... as long as the HTML is also well formed XML (so doesn't contain any of the singleton elements (<BR> for example) 2) Don't tell XSLT to output HTML! Use XML output instead. mike -----Original Message----- From: Nathan Shaw [mailto:n8_shaw@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: 20 July 2001 15:11 To: XSL-List@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [xsl] Apologies and 2 questions First off, I apologize if I offended people by asking that replies to my previous queries go directly to me as I am a digester. Some people took it upon themselves to tell me that it is not polite. I really wish I could be a regular subscriber, but XML/XSL is only part of my required skillset. It is only a small part right now. I also have to keep up with XHTML, Java, CF, Javascript, SQL, etc... I simply don't have time to read every message that comes in, as I am already a member of 4 other high-traffic lists. Getting the XSL digest affords me the ability to scan and learn when I can find some free time. So, if you think what I did was rude, I apologize. Secondly, I have 2 questions. Please pardon me, as I know they are newbie questions... (As an aside, if anyone has a good reference, be it book, web site, etc... for XSLT/XML/DTD's, I would love to know about it. Perhaps then I would not have to bother the list with such banal questions. But, I am finding good info on XSLT/DTD's rather hard to come by) 1) I have an XML document that can contain HTML within an element. i.e. <section> <sectiontext>This is <a href="http://www.yahoo.com">section <b>text</b></a></sectiontext> </section> What needs to be done in the DTD and/or XSL to make this work? Right now, I have the sectiontext element defined as PCDATA, so it is barfing when HTML is in there. 2) I am using the XHTML Transitional Doctype on all of the outputted content, so I need to have all standalone tags closed (<br />, <hr />). How do make the XSL output the end slash to make all of my output XHTML compliant? TIA, <shirk> *I am a digester and would appreciate a direct response (n8_shaw@xxxxxxxxx). Please do not be offended :> </shirk> Nate ===== ---------------------------- Nathan Shaw Web Applications Developer iaffect http://www.iaffectonline.com http://www.iaffectTV.com ---------------------------- __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
